Finally

Been in need of some chill music anyway
Let's see if this can stand up to "How I Got Over"

[AJS2050]

This album has exceeded my expectations. After a few listens i would so far rank it along side Phrenology and How I Got Over as one of my favourite Roots albums. This is probably the best album i've heard in 2011.

[AJS2050]

Album of the year. Hope it does well on the Billboard, would be good to see a truely great hip-hop album in the top ten for a change.

Favourite Tracks:

1)One Time
2)Kool On
3)Lighthouse
4)Make My
5)The Otherside

I haven't heard this yet, but I'm hearing it's a good album let down by some awful hoolks, I'll check it out asap though

[I'mShady]

This is why we need more concept albums.

[Sekou]

The OtherSide is my favourite track as of now. The beat is absolutely amazing.

Kool on and the Otherside back-to-back is incredible

There are some hooks I'm not feeling though, I don't think Dice Raw can sing very well (imagine John Legend doing the hooks on here

Redford
Possibility
Will to Power
Finality
Dun

^ these arent songs...

although i liked it, Sleep has only one verse that isnt even a minute long..

but with that being said...
the rest was good..
just expected better tbh...
